"Alex did a marvelous job cleaning out an area where my AC and pool equipment are located. It had overgrown weeds. He removed all the weeds, laid down tarp and placed pretty rocks there. Looks much cleaner and neater. He is very professional and price is very reasonable."

"These guys were very professional and were well prepared for my driveway renovation. The owner Theo supervised and when the jobs were done he made sure everything was cleaned up perfectly. This is a very good company to do business with plus I will be using them again for more concrete work."

"Paul and his team are amazing. They did the work timely and professionally. And when something hidden from view was discovered, they explained what was unexpectedly found, provided us with information and options and then just handled it without missing a beat or taking longer to complete the job. I can’t think of anyone else I would trust with any work at my house - from the smallest job to a whole house renovation. I referred a friend in Southwest Ranches whose prior contractor created a massive nightmare and ignored the plans. Paul and his Prestige crew went in and turned their nightmare into their dream home. If you want it done correctly, on budget and on time, call Paul and Prestige!"

"This was a hard removal. It was a cement surface over my concrete pool deck. It had to be removed with an industrial size grinder that looked like a big floor polisher. The work was dirty and dusty but at the end of the day and throughout the job, it was being continuously cleaned and dry vacuumed. Every evening (it took 5 days) the completed areas had been cleaned and left neatly. They moved my furniture, my plants, everything and then returned it. Hire them. They are already hired for another project. Highly recommend without hesitation."

"B&T Land Development exceeded my expectations for the work I had asked them to do. They arrived early, were very professional, knowledgeable and did great work! I had them remove some trees and bushes on my property. They removed everything and raked the land back over to make it look nice. They were careful with their machine and never messed up my sod in the yard. 10/10 would highly recommend this company."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can excavate in the winter, but it might make the job harder. Frozen ground is harder to dig, and snow or ice can make the work site more hazardous. A contractor may need special equipment and techniques, such as ground-thawing methods, to break through frozen soil. Although winter excavation is possible, it may take longer and be more costly than excavating during warmer months.

In most areas, you will need a permit for excavation work, even for projects that only involve grading or yard leveling. Permit requirements depend on your local government and the scope of the project, but they are especially common for significant digging or work that could affect utilities or public property. These permits help protect the local topography and prevent drainage issues. An experienced excavation company will typically know whether permits are needed and can often handle the process of pulling and closing them for you. You can also verify permit requirements by contacting your local building department and describing your project.

Downspouts should be buried at least 5 to 10 feet away from your foundation. This can vary depending on your local building codes, soil type, and property slope. The main goal is to ensure water is directed away from your foundation.

The rules for trenching and excavation include setting up and following safety protocols, learning how to use tools and machines properly, and ensuring there is a safe exit for all workers. Keep heavy equipment and materials away from the edge of the hole or trench. Call the 811 dig line before starting any excavation or trenching project to ensure you don’t hit any electrical or gas lines.

You can dig 60 to 80 linear feet by hand per day depending on the depth. Digging a 100-foot trench by hand will take you two work days, but it can take longer if you have heavy or rocky soil. If you’re digging a deep trench or one that’s over 100 feet, consider renting a mechanical trencher, such as a walk-behind or ride-on, or calling a pro for help.
